MEDesign – Human Health Book

The MeDesign Human Health book is the result of a 10-week project in the Graduate Graphic Design Applications course in the MFA Graphic Design program in the School of Design at Rochester Institute of Technology. Thirteen first-year graduate students were presented with a challenge: design a book section (4 to 6 pages on a part of the human body); conduct research, write content and design largely non-verbal visual explanations through highly stylized graphic diagrammatic components. Students collaborated in teams to design the book’s structure and layout as well as develop a system of icons for each of the thirteen sections, design the cover, coordinate and prepare files for printing, and shepherd the project through printing production.
